    Thanks to your support, Biketober is just around the corner - and masses of people across the region will soon see joyful bike events in action.

    Here's a glimpse of the delicious adventures in store for you:

    Earlier this year we asked you to join us in promoting cycling as a sustainable, joyful and inclusive transport mode to more Aucklanders than ever. And you came through! Your support has been key to ensuring this year's Biketober is more impactful than ever.

    The calendar includes a diverse array of joyful bike events across the region, and more Biketober events will be listed soon. You can see them here:

    We still firmly believe Biketober has the power to bring local decision-makers on board, and get more people than ever giving cycling for transport a whirl. Thank you for supporting that vision, and for supporting the movement for a bike-friendly Tāmaki Makaurau Auckland.

  • A huge thanks to you for your support

      10 April 2025

    Annnnnd that's a wrap! Thank you so much to everyone who has donated, shared, and volunteered time towards this fundraiser. And special thank you to Sandfield, Lime, and Zoomin e-Bikes for providing match funding during the campaign.

    While the fundraising page on Givealittle has now closed, you are most welcome to continue to make donations via our website here: https://www.bikeauckland.org.nz/donate/

    The Central & East Team is the winning area and will be the host for the Biketober opening event! If that's not your area, don't worry - there will be lots of other events across the region, and we'll make sure no area misses out.

    We'll be sharing an update next week about how much we've raised in total - leaving time for the Bike Karaoke this Friday to bring in some final donations (check out Bike Karaoke here: https://www.bikeauckland.org.nz/event/sing-your-heart-out-big-bike-off-karaoke/ )

    Thanks again,

    The team at Bike Auckland

    Thank you for your support to bring Biketober to more people. Your donation will help to change hearts and minds, and to bring newly elected Councilors and Local Board Members on board.

    We're thrilled to announce that from today, Friday the 28th to Sunday the 30th (at 9:30pm), every $1 you donate to the main GiveaLittle page of this crowdfunding campaign will be matched by $1 from our amazing sponsor, Zoomin eBikes!

    That means your generous donation has DOUBLE the impact for the Big Bike-Off! 🚴‍♀️✨

    Please share The Big Bike-off Fundraising Challenge with your friends and let them know it's the perfect time to make their contribution count! 💪

    https://givealittle.co.nz/event/biggest-bike-celebration-ever

    Note - donations through the team pages (West etc) unfortunately won't be matched. They will only be matched via the main fundraising page.

    Together we've raised almost $2000 so far! Help us get to $20,000!

    Thank you again,

    The Team at Bike Auckland
